Daenerys is being put together slowly. I put a fresh install of Hardy-Gutsy-upgraded, actually, since I had so much trouble with the Hardy disk-and XP on there and I'm loving the cleanliness and speediness. She's inherited everything else from Felisin so we'll see if she runs into any hardware problems, but Dany will get piecewise upgrades over the next year or so as needed. Then Felisin will ascend? and become my server... of Apocalypse.
M__'s Rachael is dual-booting Hardy and XP as well. With her hardware back home she will be running so very sexy.
I was in Winblows for all of 5 minutes and I was already frustrated with most everything. The keymap thing is probably due to my shitty install disk, so I'll leave that alone, but it took me a few hours to get settled in before realising that the stuff I have is probably several versions old and I'd better look for newer versions in case of whatever. Compare to KDE being up and running in under 30 minutes with my old configurations AND I had the latest versions of all my gear as soon as I logged in AND my shit is secure and encrypted. I fucking love open source. When I get cravings to play Sims 2 or something I'll suck it up and get it right, but until then: :byewhore:
